The National Training and Simulation Association (NTSA), sponsor of I/ITSEC, believes strongly that there is an American crisis in science and technology education. At our I/ITSEC event, you will see Science, Technology, Engineering and Math programs (STEM) in action on many different levels.

In order to keep I/ITSEC program timely and relevant, over 300 volunteers dedicate time throughout the entire year (sometimes more) to provide fresh relevant material. Click through this section to see more about the committee structure and opportunities.
If you are interested in being joining this team, contact the Program Chair to be connected to the upcoming year's coordinator.

The Tuesday Morning General Session and the Thursday evening Awards Banquet will be held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Windermere Ballroom. All other activities for I/ITSEC will be in the SOUTH CONCOURSE of the Orange County Convention Center. (Located between the Hyatt Regency and Hilton hotels.)
